YALE,s VICTORY.

Eer Defeat of Harvard Gives Her the
college Football Championship
Nearly 10000 See the Game-Score
~ to 8.
Yale students had great thanks to offer
Thanksgiving afternoon as they saw their
team outplaying the Reds from Harvard in
the decisive football game at the Polo
grounds. The crowd which saw the game
was immense. During the game the
grounds resounded with the college yell SO
often heard. The turnstiles at the gates in
dictated that II, 300 people had passed in.
The score, II to s, scarcely shows the
closeness and uncertainty of the struggle
For Yale's last goal, counting six points,
was kicked Just at the end of the fight, and
one of Harvard's touchdowns, counting four
points, was ruled out because time was call
ed in the first half after the ball had been
carried across the goal line, but before 1t
could be touched to the ground. Till within
five minutes of the finish, in fact, the game
was anybody's. Then Wurtemburg, the
Yale half back, made brilliant dash from
the middle of the field, zigzagging through
and by the whole Harvard team and landing
safely Just across the line at the far corner.
1t was the most brilliant run OF the
year, and Bulls kick of the difficult goal
clinched the victory Yale had fairly earned
The winning score was made by goal from
the field and two goals from touchdowns.
Harvard had one goal from touchdown and
one safety touchdown to her credit.
This was the game which was to decide
whether Yale OF Harvard should have the
championship this year. 1t had long prom
ised to be one of the hottest and best con-
tested of the season, and the fact that the
| two teams were tied for the championship
drew to the Polo grounds nearly every man
in New York who had ever been within hail
ing distance of college diploma. Governor
Hill was there. The day was just cold
enough for sharp playing. Excitement
throughout was high, but few fairer, more
even tempered or more reputable matches
have been seen in the intercollegiate series.
There was no hint of pugilism about the
game, and the brutal element was reduced to
a minimum. Harvard's play was vigorous
and often brilliant, though weak now and
then in team work, while Yales' was, as
| usual, model of precision and accuracy,
The game was won by the New Haven ele-
ven's cleverer strategy and sharper training.
The men were ranged IN this position:

The settlement of the estate of the late Ellen
Scanlon was opposed in the Probate court yester-
day by Hobart L. Hotchkis7, representing Gather
inc Canguly and William Sullivan. Mrs. Scanlon
was buried in lot in St. Demands cemetery Of
which she owned a part. Administrator Sullivan
subsequently disinterred the remains and had them
placed in a lot which he owns and in which he and
his sisters are to be buried. A monument was then
erected and Mrs Scanlons name was carved there
on. He asks that the estate pay proportion
ate sum for burial and monument expenses. To
this arrangement William Sullivan objects. He is
willing to have the estate pay for monument for
his sisters grave her lot and claims that the
estate can be holden for only this The other sis
tiers make objection to the present arrangement.
The Administrator wants an allowance of S75 to
wards the monument recently erected. William
Sullivan is willing for such allowance if his sis
ter is reinterred in her lot To this her brother
objects.

POSTOFFICE POINTERS.
Increase of Business-sm All Wages to Fm
pIoyes-Few Complaints.

Increase OF BuSiness-Sm All Wages to Fm
ployes-Few Complaints.
A GAZETTE man took advantage of q
little interval of leisure that the obiging
and competent clerk attae stamp window
of the pos Office had yesterday, to hurl &
volume of questions, all of which met
with satisfactory responses. In reply to
a query as TO the business done, it was
| learned that though the volume OF postal
transactions Was not so large at present
as during the winter months Just ended,
vel it far exceeded the amount Of
business for the corresponding time
last year in every department OF the
office II was further elected thaL the
amount work required of the present
force was very heavy, aud in fact the
employees could hardly keep up with it.
Not only are the clerks of the For, Worth
pOstOffice worked hard, but they re t e
most poorly paid of any in 7, Xas; the
emp oyes at Offices like Dallas, San An
toaio, Austin and other places receiving
far better salaries. The skilled and
efficient clerk in question was only draw
ing from the plethoric purse of Uncle Sam,
monthly stipend lower by fifty per
cent. than the same s ervlCe would be
worth in any private establishment.
What was the cause of the
poor salaries? Well, Just so
much money had been apprOpria ed by the
department at Washing on. The increase
Of business had made necessary an in
crease in the help, and of course as more
had to be gald, the amount to each be
came smaller, SIS no inCr ease to the ap
preparation was made by the govern
meDt.
"Many cOmp4ints?"
"Not many. Occasionally man comes
after letter or paper, and because he is
disappointed at getting negative an
swer, wants to argue the point. Some
times it is 8 woman that does this, but
that doesn't signify much. If carrier
gets unable to make his route from sick
ness and a 4, " man takes his place, there
Will be some to complain at getting mail
behind the u>u3l time All complaints
meet with prompt iDvestIg ttiOn, how
ever, and if is there anything wrong it is
soon COTeCted.'
''Is much money sent sway from Fort
Worth lhTouGh the pOstCff1ce?"
"a great deal. OF late l nave noticed
that q great many persons are taking out
money orders pByaHle to themselves. /
suppose they think that il is the safest
way to take care Of heir money, preferriDg
it even TO depOsitlng in banks -
"Wh2t then would you like for Mr..
Villas TO DO for the office heTt?"
"Pay US better salaries and give US
more help; at Iesst two more clerks and
ODe or two more carriers, and things
would be about right"

THE OTHER SIDE.

The Manager of the Romeldi Company
Gives His Version of The Trouble.
Last night Mr.. Charles Van Benthuyser
Of N w Orleans, manager of the R0meld
Opera Company, was a caller st THE GA
zETTE office. He said he wanted to state
his side of the controversy between him
self and Manager Eastwood of the Fort
Worth opera house: owe had a plain
contract with Them" said he, "and have
nothing to compromise. We were to re
ceive $500 for two nights play. Before
the first nights performance was ended,
| received half that sum and q due
bill gwen by Mr.. Eastwood fo1
the other Ihalf. We came back
from Dallas to play out the engagement
Friday night. Ire company went around
to the opera house, ready to carry out
their part, but was Informed that there
would be no opera that night. Payment
of The due bill was refused"
Mr.. Van Benthuysen said, in alluslon
to the cause of Mr.. Dashwood's refusal to
pay the rest-the limited number Of peo-
PIE in the Opera-tbat the contract did
not call for any precise number of PEOPLE,
g. that he had not agreed verbally to
bring any particular number. They gave
acts from grand operas that did not re-
qulre any more performers than Miss
r meldi had. No chorus was a.
all necessary in the performances, which
had met with great success in New Or
leans, Galveston and other places, &C
cordng to Mr.. Van Benthuysen. The
gentleman said in conclusion that he had
par the matter in the hands of an attOr-
neY and would not only sue for the re-
naming $3.50, but for damages.

a Change for the Better.

Pendery Bros, the live grocerymen,
will, during the early part of next week,
move their stock of goods into the same
building occupied by the Queen City
Market, on Main street between Fifth aud
SIKH streets This change of base has
been made necessary by the increase in
business of the. firm, they having found
their present quarters wholly inadequate
to their wants q The GAZETTE notes
with pleasure the success which has at
tended this firm and which goes to show
that honest dealiug4and gct-up-and-g get
is the keystone to4sucsess in any under
taking They wild gressag increase their
stock of fancy attd staplsgrocerles after
their removal 10 the new quarters, and
they desire, through THE &AzETTE, to
extend their sfGcere thanks to their many
friends and patrons throughout Bhe city
and solicit a continuance Of their fayOrs,
and assure them that they will always be
found ready, willing ard anxious to serve
them even more acCeptably than they
have been able to do so in the past. They
will make a speciality OF fac goods and
low prices.
